Hi,

This issue was reported by Mark Shannon on Python-dev mailing list

Seems that there's an issue on doc build on Github pipeline

https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/22026/checks?check_run_id=1050881634
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/22025/checks?check_run_id=1050403463

This is being fixed by pinning setuptools in bpo-41685. Closing it as duplicate.
